Answer:

metamorphism: Characteristics of Metamorphism In general, a metamorphic rock is coarser and has a higher density and lower porosity than the rock from which it was formed. Under low grade metamorphic conditions, the original rocks may only compact, as in the formation of slate from shale.

Metamorphic rocks started out as some other type of rock, but have been substantially changed from their original igneous, sedimentary, or earlier metamorphic form. Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to high heat, high pressure, hot mineral-rich fluids or, more commonly, some combination of these factors. ( This is from google so I recommend you paraphrase this )

What is meant by the unexpected consequences of environmental manipulation?

belka [17]

Environmental manipulation of a crop can not only have unexpected consequences, but also have a negative impact on the atmosphere as well. The crops produced might be of inferior quality than expected. The amount of crop that grows can also be less. More water might be needed for the crops to grow.

Answer:

The team would have to replace the nucleus.

Explanation:

Prokaryotic cells, such as the Mycoplasma capricolum cell used in the experiment do not contain either membrane bound organelles or a defined nucleus. Prokaryotic DNA floats around freely in the cytoplasm in a region called the nucleoid.

The genetic material of eukaryotic cells is protected by a membrane bound nucleus. Therefore, in order to replace an animal cell's DNA, the whole nucleus has to be removed.

Example:

In the process of cloning, the oocyte (egg cell) that receives the nucleus (from somatic cell) of the desired species or individual has to be enucleated i.e. its own nucleus has to be removed. This process is called somatic cell nuclear transfer.
